Clinics
Rural and remote Australia is characterised by small, widely dispersed populations with limited access to primary health care services. The RFDS works to overcome this, providing regular fly-in fly-out GP, Nursing and Allied Health Clinics to rural and remote communities. Everyday the RFDS holds 65 clinics Australia wide.
In 2020/21, the RFDS facilitated 23,633 primary health care clinics.
In many of the locations where these clinics are provided, the RFDS is the only provider of health care services. As a result, the RFDS delivers health care services to people throughout their whole lives and to generations of families.
